Faiq, you are right. The aircraft aren't visible when they are low in altitude but ADS-B is installed in Lahore.

FlyDubai operate to Multan Airport which uses B738 which has instrument installed. Moreover Shaheen Air also operate to Dubai and later to Madinah which will be operated with A320 (most definitely). That can be shown on radar.

It is not the CAA equipment which shows on the Flightradar24 and other websites. Anyone with an ADS-B receiver hooked up to a PC can upload the info to Flightradar server.
You can do so even from Lala Musa
